American Crime Story: The People v. O.J. Simpson miniseries

"Arresting from the get-go, the performances in this limited series are almost uniformly superb." 

"The ever-prolific TV auteur kicks off his 'American Crime Story' franchise with a superb 10-episode version of the most notorious of celeb homicides." 

"Executive producer Ryan Murphy (...) has created his most mature, confident series. He also directed the first two episodes, and his work is free of cheap tricks or gimmicks. The truth is so strange, he doesn’t need them." 

"'The People v. O.J. Simpson' isn’t flawless, and it probably won’t stand up to the sort of factual scrutiny that still swirls around its subject matter, but it is ambitiously imagined, surprisingly responsible and practically unerring in tone and pace." 

"Somehow, Ryan Murphy has managed to craft a new series that feels purposeful, subtle, unique and engrossing, while still containing all the maniacal things we love (and sometimes hate) about his filmmaking." 

"[It] often feels like an elaborate stunt, but still ekes out ample nuance, humanity and humor, despite a couple clunky performances that threaten to spin the series into the realm of camp." 

"The FX limited-run series is every bit as watchable as the insanely watchable trial."
